The Government Actuary’s Department (GAD) is a department of the Government of the United Kingdom responsible for providing actuarial advice to public sector clients. It describes itself as providing "Actuarial analysis - For the public sector - From the public sector". The services GAD provides are: : * Actuarial valuations and advice for public sector pension schemes; : * Advice to the Government on occupational pension schemes and on private pensions policy; : * Advice on the pension aspects of staff transfers from the public sector; : * Advice to the UK government and overseas organisations on their social security arrangements and actuarial reviews of the National Insurance fund; : * Advice on investment-related issues including investment risk management strategies, and on project and enterprise risk; and : * Other actuarial and statistical advice on areas, including statistical analysis, healthcare financing and actuarial training. ==History== In 1912 the Government appointed a chief actuary to the National Health Insurance Joint Committee, following the Old Age Pensions Act 1908 and the National Insurance Act 1911. As the role of the Chief Actuary expanded the post of Government Actuary was created in 1917. Two years later the Government Actuary’s Department was formed. The role of GAD within government expanded significantly in the 1940s and 1950s, coinciding with an expansion of the state’s role in pensions, social security and health care. By the 1980s GAD had grown into a significant actuarial consultancy within government and in 1989 the financing of GAD through an annual Parliamentary vote of funds was replaced by a system of directly charging users of GAD’s services. The calculation of GAD's fees is based solely on the recovery of its costs. Today, GAD has offices in London and Edinburgh and employs 170 staff of whom 70 are qualified actuaries. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Government Actuary's Department」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
